(4,484 posts)The convention happening is news. MSNBC is a news network, and therefore cover the news even when it's sickening.
Fox is an entertainment network they exist to entertain the braindead.

2. No charisma out of the first three

So far, this is technically bland, and substantively ridiculous.

musicblind
(4,484 posts)by holding our convention at and around monuments and other government locations?
Traditionally, that has been considered amoral because those locations own to all Americans, not a single political party.
But if the Republicans are going to throw morals out the window, should we have done that? Or is that "stooping to their level."

(639 posts)Deep love for family from Trump? A thrice divorced deviant, who couldn't even find a nice, Christian American to marry.
He chose a model who posed nude in his aeroplane.
Nothing about what the last 4 years have saved us from everything she's claiming will happen in the next four years?
Me thinks she has been in a coma for 4 years, because we we saved by Trump, right?

This video has Trump saying "I have kept every single" promise. Not even close to true. Mexico hasn't paid for the wall, Obamacare hasn't been repealed, and on and on. PolitiFact's 100-promise tracker says 49% have been broken. https://politifact.com/truth-o-meter/promises/trumpometer/?ruling=true
